Planning everything yourself!

We've been planning the whole thing ourselves as well, except for the stag and doe- his parents did that. As I see it you don't need to have other people help plan a day that is about you and your FH. If it's just you two planning it then there isn't as much stress and fighting amongst everybody.

You will be happy when it's all over. My advice is to simplify as much as you can. If you're not getting help, make it a simple wedding. Do you really have to have a bachelorette AND a shower? I just called all the ladies and said we're having a dinner at this restaurant as a meet and greet. Separate bills of course. Make things simple and you won't get as stressed about people not helping. My FH just wanted a city hall wedding and dinner at a restaurant. There's nothing wrong with that, at all. We didn't end up doing that because we couldn't find a nice restaurant and city hall isn't open on the weekend. SIMPLIFY.

Everything that is going on took the fun out of planning and the excitement to even getting married. It is supposed to be a happy time did not know weddings take on more then expected....

Haha thanks. I know during the wedding planning it's all on the bride but for the bachelorette and bridal shower I have to plan it as well. My maid of honor well not sure why she committed when she refuses to even plan it with my mother so whatever, I decided I will plan what I need to get done myself like the bridal party is just there for looks.

You and I, both. Ever since I got engaged, I've been planning everything myself too, like inquiring to all vendors and booking meeting with the priest and doing the head count myself. although my maid of honour and bridesmaids are all supportive and have the willingness to help, they all think that since my wedding is not until in 2 years, that it's way too early to start planning.

Anyway, Goodluck for the both of us. LOL!

That is unfortunate but I hope at least your FH is on board to help when and where he can. The bridal party is really only supposed to plan things like bachelorettes and bridal showers (though that can also be hosted by the mother of the bride). Good luck!

I'm sorry to don't have any support. Technically, I don't think anyone is supposed to help you plan the wedding, I know a lot of people assume that the bridal party is supposed to do it but it's not really their job.
If you can't hire a wedding planner, you should be able to get some guidance from your venue. If you have questions on timing or need help with selecting vendors, they should be able to help you.
Good luck!
